Much like how the end of the (Western) Roman empire wasn't just one big event, you had people believing for generations that they were still living in "the empire" long after it had any ability to administrate or maintain any territory. We'll see the same with the US I think. Their central government will be non existent and the territory will be split up into successor states, but a lot of people will still think that the USA exists.
